Hovering around From this mountain on its ground, Designing venture. Besides, I've learned the danger. I've prepared the map and the compass, But I forgot to eat my breakfast. Enough is breather from the multimedias -- Forced to pass, ached for the grass. Lifting my weight up above. Climbing the top to see the doves. Gripping tightly, not to plummet. Mind's fixation on the summit. this rising brought to a halt as i stopped in the middle, i could see the trees, and houses and sea salt How major? How big is this beauty? as i lift this weight above, i've felt this landscape of exception and worth, my life of insignificance as i melt how small i am compared to the earth "and at once i knew I was not magnificent" i sang as i hike as i taste the holocene

And I want to believe you when you tell me that it'll be okay- And I want you to hold my hand and walk me through that door. And despite my fears I'll dance for you, becsuse I just dance the way I feel. Now catch that shut eye in my room Sleeping in- Oh, summer moon, Starts at night - worthless insight Lapping lakes like Leerey Loons- Patience, shadow, hold on tight; Waiting alone in your caccoon, Till dawn till dusk; till you fade to light & every night, you fade to light.

To Yearn
04.35 am Bon Iver  is playing quietly For Emma  is set on repeat I'm hiding under the covers Music is my sleeping pill Tonight my mouth refuse to swallow it So awake I lay With the drapes drawn Hoping to finally get some rest Bon Iver is playing: 'For all you're lies, You're still very loveable.' While I pretend that For Emma is my song 04.53 am

An almost stillness came about as she strode into my door, like breath itself refused to move, fearful of touching her mysterious beauty But her obsidian eyes betrayed her. Sharp and gleaming, with a silver sheen she looked at me, and I knew… -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Molten lava spilled forth from her mouth, melting our clocks— eighteen hundred nightmares compressed in two hours. Long hand moving forward, as the short hand moved backward How can memories persist in such an acrid life? She spoke of a beast in the guise of a man, one who ravaged innocence with the flick of a click A coward that collected milk teeth for hardened bones of other ***** beasts with no spine That throaty tenderness when she spoke, sprinkled crystal seeds of frustration in me She says she loathed him, denied she loved him, but her obsidian eyes betrayed her There she was, a bud he plucked from the nuns’ garden He grafted then he pruned her, spreading her pollen, wafting her scent yet folding her petals to himself Caterpillars feeding upon her leaves, she lets them devour her, yet once they are wrapped in their cocoons to sleep, she stabs them with her thorns. Tears then slid down from her midnight lace eyes and it was all I could do to catch them She said she was weary of curtailing butterflies, of tearing their wings before they can even fly I had to ask, how many… how many winged gems? She lifted her sleeves, and showed me her scars One ugly mark for each innocent child plunged deep, my heart getting slashed at least three hundred a beat. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A certain stillness came about as I strode into her door, like fear itself refused to move, letting breath touch her mysterious beauty for the last time.... Her obsidian eyes had betrayed her. Sharp and gleaming, with a silver sheen I looked at the knife beside her. Maroon-mapped sheets, a stunted womb. Strains of Bon Iver’s “Flume” flit past the sighing air like a butterfly, and I knew…

Emma is the girl For who you'd pay millions Just to hear her laugh That laugh It is a laugh no summer breeze can compete with To hear Emma talk Is to immerse yourself in a still black lake Illuminated my moonlight's gleam On a raw summer night Once you hear it Her voice becomes the only lullaby You will ever fall asleep to Once you see her The second you do Beauty will cease to exist There will only be Emma And that which is not her.
